EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Elsie's Return" we are transported to a moment of anticipation and intrigue. The image captures the essence of a scene from Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's renowned poem, "The Golden Legend". As we gaze upon the deck of a ship, our eyes are drawn to Elsie standing beneath an awning that provides respite from the sun's rays. The composition exudes a sense of mystery as Elsie stands in contemplation, her figure partially obscured by shadows. The awning offers her solace and protection, contrasting with the vastness of the open sea surrounding her. It is as if she has found refuge amidst uncertainty. Meteyard skillfully conveys both physical and emotional elements through his artistic interpretation. We can almost feel the cool breeze brushing against our skin and envision ourselves standing beside Elsie on that very deck. This print serves as a visual representation of one of Longfellow's most iconic characters - Elsie - who finds herself caught between two worlds: one filled with religious devotion and another entangled in temptation personified by Satan himself. Through this image, Meteyard invites us to ponder upon themes such as faith, inner struggles, and the eternal battle between good and evil. "Elsie's Return" is not just an exquisite piece of art but also an invitation for introspection into our own personal journeys - reminding us that even in moments shrouded in darkness or doubt, there is always hope waiting beneath
